The Stunning Transformation Of Jackie Sandler

May 2024 · 2 minute read

In 2017, the comedy Adam Sandler sent down the Netflix assembly line was "Sandy Wexler," in which he plays a talent manager. Adam cast Jackie Sandler as one of his character's clients. That same year, Adam had another movie to promote, and while Jackie didn't make a cameo in it, she had a good reason to be really excited about it.

The film was "The Meyerowitz Stories," and it wasn't one of Adam's frivolous flicks that offers the same type of comforting escapism as a Hallmark movie. It had acclaimed director Noah Baumbach at its helm, and its marquee names included Dustin Hoffman, Emma Thompson, and Sigourney Weaver. Adam's rare straying into the more serious side of Hollywood earned him a ticket to the Cannes Film Festival, and Jackie couldn't wait to ascend the iconic red stairs at the Palais des Festivals with him. However, she was concerned that she might trip and fall. "So, we had a month before we went, and every staircase, we would practice," Adam revealed on "Conan."

But when the big moment came, a grouchy French official tried to keep Jackie at the bottom of the stairs while the movie's cast ascended them together. Adam begged the official to let him return to Jackie so she could walk up with him, but to no avail. "Then I hear — Dustin goes, 'Go get your wife,'" Adam recalled. After the Hoffman spoke up on behalf of the Sandman, the official relented, and Jackie got her moment on the stairs.
